Not to rain on anyone's parade, of course, but if the source files you used
to burn the CD were equipped with some form of DRM mechanism, the tactic you
describe would be considered as bypassing or stripping the mechanism, and
would be a violation (as I understand it, which is minimal) of the DMCA.  It
may also be a violation of iTunes TOS (not being an iTunes user myself, I've
no clue).  I'm sure it varies on a recording-by-recording basis, but do
tread carefully.

Actually, iTunes *won't* let you save an AAC encoded file as an mp3. But if
you burn a playlist to a CD-RW, you can then rip the songs from the CD as
mp3 files (then just reuse the CD for something else.)  I did this yesterday
for a client's blog, so I know it's that easy.

Unless I am mistaken, the iTunes store sells songs with AAC encoding, rather
than MP3. You need iTunes to make the purchase, however, and iTunes will
convert the songs to MP3 for you.
